Open Letter, by Terry Slaughter

Dear U:

Nothing is ever empty. Yo empty glass

is full … of air

Kids overflow’d

with possibility, now de empty

So, If u meet dem

Comin round the corner

and u stare down the barrel of

eyes full of something u don’t

recognize that can’t be reached

just listen

when dat bullet hisses “U  -  FORGOT  - ME…”

Sign’d and sincerely urs, THUGLIFE

from “The Ellipses Chronicles”
